Standard-compliant Scenario Building with Theoretical Justification in a Theory-aware Authoring Tool Nowadays standard technologies play important roles in enhancing sharability, reusability and interoperability of learning contents. However, there is a lack of pedagogical justification of the contents implemented with the standards. This paper discusses the standard-compliance of our ontology-based modeling framework and how the framework gives theoretical justification to standard-compliant learning/instructional scenarios in a theory-aware authoring tool.,Poster in 13th International ConfereAuthor(s): Hayashi Yusuke,Bourdeau Jacqueline,Mizoguchi Riich

Small company attitude towards ICT based solutions: some key-elements to improve it In this paper we illustrate some research results concerning the attitude of small companies towards ICT based solutions (specifically Distance Communication, Training and Consultancy); in addition, we introduce some key-elements to overtake the obstacles to introducing ICT in small companies for new business processes; amongst others, we highlight the need for training about technological innovation as well as about organizational and cultural changes that must occur within a company.

A First Step Mapping IMS Learning Design and Moodle Mapping the specification IMS Learning Design and the Course Management
System Moodle is a logical step forward on interoperability between eLearning systems and
specifications in order to increase the best acceptance of the specifications into the widespread
world of the eLearning systems and to ensure the standardization of the outputs from the
systems to be used in others. IMS Learning Design and Moodle look for a common
understanding focused on the integration of information packages modelleAuthor(s): Burgos Daniel,Tattersall Colin,Dougiamas Martin,Vo

Interdisciplinary approach for the design of a learning environment This paper presents our interdisciplinary approach for the design of a technology-based learning environment for orthopaedic surgery. We present how the didactical analysis of teaching and learning in workplace gives a framework to build the computational representation of knowledge. This analysis is shown within the context of the apprenticeship of concepts of anatomy and orthopaedic surgery.Author(s): Vadcard Lucile,Luengo Vanda

Student's modelling with a lattice of conceptions in the domain of linear equations and inequations We present a student's modelling process in algebra which consists of two phases. The first phase is a local diagnosis where a student's transformation of an expression A into an expression B is diagnosed with a sequence of rewriting rules. A library of correct and incorrect rules has been built for that purpose. The second phase uses a lattice of conceptions built for modelling students more globally. Conceptions are attributed to students according to a mechanism using the local diagnoses as iAuthor(s): Nicaud Jean-FranÃ§ois,Bouhineau Denis,Chaachoua Ha

Geometry of nonlinear connections We show that locally diffeomorphic exponential maps can be defined for any second-order differential equation,
and give a (possibly nonlinear) covariant derivative for any (possibly nonlinear) connection. We introduce vertically homogeneous connections as the natural correspondents of homogeneous second-order differential equations.
We provide significant support for the prospect of studying nonlinear connections via certain, closely associated secondorder
differential equations. One of the mosAuthor(s): Parker, Phillip E.,Del Riego, L.
